| 2007 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR SHUTS DOWN, LIKE SOMEONE UNPLUGGED THE ENGINE. THIS WAS THE MOST HORRIFIC MOMENT IN MY LIFE, SEMI TRUCKS ZOOMING PAST ME. FINALLY MADE MY WAY TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK, CAR WAS TOWED HOME AND THE TOW TRUCK GUY PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. DROVE THE CAR TO WORK AND IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN THIS TIME I WAS ONLY DOING 35 MPH. I WAITED FOR ABOUT 30 MIN AND THE CAR STARTED RIGHT BACK UP, ON MY HOME FROM WORK IT DID IT AGIN. THE FOLLOWING WEEK IT DID IT AGIAN, TOOK THE CAR TO A "GM" CERITIFIED MECHANIC BUT OF COURSE THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM, PICKED THE CAR UP AND DROVE IT FOR A FEW DAYS IT HAPPENED AGAIN, TOOK IT BACK TO THE GM MECHANIC, STILL COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, PICKED IT UP A WEEK LATER SAME ISSUE. TO SUM IT UP I HAVE HAD THE IGNITION MODULE AND THE CRANK SENSOR SHAFT AND STILL CAN NOT LOCATE TH PROBLEM. THE CAR IS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND NOW IT'S JUST SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY AND WON'T START AT ALL. GM REALLY NEEDS TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS SITUATION BRFORE SOMEONE GETS REALLY HURT, THE CAR IS DEFECTIVE. *TR |
